Els #Encants: A huge market selling everything from authentic memorabilia and new furniture in the shops at the top, through fabric and second-hand at the stalls in the middle, to car-boot junk at the bottom.

The Museu D'Automats is full of cool fairground robots and automata from the 19th & 20th centuries, including this mechanised scale model of #Tibidabo. Some of them take 20 minutes to an hour to reset after each use though, so you have to hope to get there at the right time... #Barcelona #catalunya http://ift.tt/1cxvHTP

The coolest ride at #Tibidabo has to be this scale model of the first plane to fly from Madrid to #Barcelona. It's suspended from a crane and pulls itself in a circle with the force of its propeller. #catalunya http://ift.tt/JRV0cv

Yesterday we went to #Tibidabo, high above #Barcelona. The mountain is home to a very old amusement park, including some of the original rides from the start of the 20th century. #catalunya http://ift.tt/JRUTOb

The area around #Barcelona is hugely varied, even just between urban areas. We took the train in the morning from #Torredembarra. #catalunya http://ift.tt/1l8poOt
